EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purchase of this course is an effort to ensure quality and consistency within our newly emerging distance learning implementation. This course, "Facilitating an Online Community," is for a period of five years to 750 district facilitators and developers of online courses. We want to provide a training program for all of those who will develop and facilitate our online courses. We would also like to ensure that the district provides distance learning courses that are of the same rigor and quality as the face-to-face courses it provides. We believe that in order to accomplish this, we must provide a training program that will be required for all developers and facilitators as the foundation for this effort.
